About this episode
Episode 552
Welcome back to the sewer, everybody. Tonight Nick goes full conspiracy theorist with a spicy (and completely unhinged) theory: the Salem witch trials never happened the way you think — they were staged BY witches to protect themselves, and they've been quietly running society ever since. Nick breaks down over 20 "pieces of evidence" ranging from sex toys to skincare routines to the women's bathroom line, takes live calls from actual self-proclaimed witches, and somehow ends up talking about pee. Plus: movie reviews (Obsession vs. The Backrooms, Spider-Man Noir), Quake and Killer Frequency talk, a Brad Pitt sobriety update, a Wordle fail, back pain and pillow surgery, and a mailbag stuffed with $2 bills courtesy of author M. Andrew Jones.
As always, this is a value-for-value show — if you got something out of it, toss a few bucks or a weird piece of mail our way. New episodes of Nick the Rat Radio drop weekly under the Dark Sewer Network banner. Grab a beer, don't summon anything, and enjoy.
